Most Manchester United fans were delighted to read reports this afternoon that the club is now ready to sack David Moyes.

An 11th Premier League defeat of the season, making it mathematically impossible for the current champions of England to qualify for next season’s Champions League, seemed to be the final straw.

Yesterday also saw another United record broken, with Everton beating the reds home and away for the first time since the 1969-1970 season.

So it appears as though the club have decided that enough is enough and want to get rid of the manager sooner rather than later. This summer will be harder than most to sign players thanks to the World Cup, as you would imagine that any player United are interested in will be competing, meaning the manager has less time than usual to get deals done.

After appointing the wrong man to replace Sir Alex Ferguson, it is vital that United get it right this time, but who should they go for?

Jurgen Klopp seems to be the most popular man amongst the fans thanks to his success with Borussia Dortmund.

He joined the German club in 2008 on the back of them finishing 13th in the league. At the end of his first season they won the DFB-Supercup, beating Bayern Munich in the final, and finished sixth in the league. The following season they finished fifth, before winning consecutive titles in the two years that followed.

Robert Lewandowski (£4 million), Ilkay Gundogan (£4 million), Mats Hummels (£3 million), Maro Reus (£15 million) are amongst some of his quality buys for little money, which is something that will certainly impress the Glazers.

Klopp isn’t alone though. Louis van Gaal is also another popular candidate and his attacking football would certainly impress United fans. His CV is ridiculously impressive, having won league titles with Barcelona, Bayern Munich and Ajax, as well as the Champions League and various other European trophies.

Van Gaal will be available after the World Cup as he is due to leave his position as coach of the Dutch national team, and his relationship with Robin van Persie wouldn’t do his chances of getting the United job any harm either.

But if Moyes is sacked now, the club will need someone to oversee the remaining few games, and some fans have suggested that Ryan Giggs would be the man for the job. He could get his mates Gary Neville, Paul Scholes and Nicky Butt to help him out.

If Phil Neville is lucky, maybe he can keep his job on the coaching staff too.
